    Author: Lobuseva AN, Vasil'ev VK, Berezina EK, Speranskaia ON, Fomina IP.
    Journal: Antibiotiki; 1975 Jun; 20(7):640-6. PubMed ID: 1225214.
    Abstract:
    Activity against 50 clinical staphylococcal strains, chemotherapeutic efficiency, absorption and distribution of dicloxacillin in animals were studied in comparison with oxacillin. It was found that dicloxacillin was superior to oxacillin with respect to a number of their properties. The antibiotic was characterized by a higher antistaphylococcal activity, especially with respect to methicillin resistant strains. It was more effective in treatment of staphylococcal pneumonia and septicopiemia of albino mice. The drug was better absorpted when used orally and was detected in the blood in therapeutic concentrations for long periods of time. The antibacterial titer of the blood serum after dicloxacillin administration was 4 times higher than that of oxacillin.
